+## SASL library
+
+If PyHive (https://github.com/dropbox/PyHive) package is used (or any other library that uses sasl package) in lambda deployed with Zappa it will fail since PyHive uses C++ libraries which must be compiled with proper CXX flags. To help with this lambda_packages includes Sasl package compiled on AWS EC2 machine for Python 3.6 which includes all needed C++ dependencies.
+Additional libs are:
+
+- libanonymous.so.2.0.23
+- libcrammd5.so.2.0.23
+- libdigestmd5.so.2.0.23
+- libgssapiv2.so.2.0.23
+- liblogin.so.2.0.23
+- libplain.so.2.0.23
+- libsasldb.so.2.0.23
+
+All are placed in `./lib` folder and to use them your lambda should set `SASL_PATH` env variable like so:
+
+```
+os.environ['SASL_PATH'] = os.path.join(os.getcwd(), 'lib')
+```

 ## Contributing
 
 To add support for more packages, send a pull request containing a gzipped tarball (`tar -zcvf <package-name>.tar.gz <list-of-files>`) of the package (built on Amazon Linux and tested on AWS Lambda) in the appropriate directory, an updated manifest, and deterministic build instructions for creating the archive.
